BROCKWAY’S MELILLO RRR ROADHOUSE D9SPORTS.COM PLAYER OF THE WEEK FOR WEEK SIX 2012
15 Players to RRR Roadhouse District 9 Honor Roll
SHIPPENVILLE – Brockway’s Chad Melillo is the RRR Roadhouse D9Sports.com District 9 Player of the Week for the sixth week of the 2012 season.
In a battle of AML South unbeatens, Melillo helped Brockway knock off Curwensville 56-34 by rushing 26 times for 164 yards and two touchdowns and caught two passes for 54 yards and a score. His touchdown midway through the third quarter helped stem the Golden Tide momentum. Brockway, thanks in part to Melillo touchdowns, led 35-0 midway through the second quarter only to see Curwensville score the next 28 points to get within a touchdown, 35-28, early in the third quarter. But Melillo scored on a 2-yard run to get the Rovers some momentum back.
Joining Melillo in being honored this week are 15 players on the RRR Roadhouse D9Sports.com Honor Roll.
